Postcards from the Alpine garden

Just messing around with the camera since it’s too early to weed if I don’t want to be labeled a fanatic gardener.

The sun has risen, the moon that pulled hikers out for night walks has not yet set and the weather people promise us a day that is good and hot.

For the roses at 1,100 metres, it is the moment before the moment: they are having a last snooze, curling up tightly in bed before bursting on the world.

I don’t blame them.

By this afternoon or tomorrow this bush will be a mass of glorious yellow roses, I expect.
